Weapon Information:

The Nine Gates Armory NG-MAB Pulse Rifle is a phased electromagnetic accelerator designed to provide infantry units with a powerful standard issue weapon for all operating conditions and roles. The NG-MAB platform includes many advanced features, such as a fully automated action, allowing operators to reload the weapon in combat without the need to manipulate a manual bolt system, as well as other simple design features, such as a fully adjustable buttstock and cheek rest and ergonomic grip configuration.
In its deployment-ready state, the NG-MAB includes systems to allow seamless integration with the other equipment of the end user, including a linked targeting and sighting module that allow the weapon to be aimed through a user's heads-up display, and an interface plate to allow the weapon to be holstered in a magnetic quick-deployment harness.
